Too many aces
How many aces is too many aces? The greatest philosophers throughout history have struggled with that question for millennia. In his victory over Radek Stepanek today, Milos Raonic hit 38 aces during the 3 set match. This is what scientists call a dizzying amount. It is apparently a career high for Raonic according to one of the match commentators.
After losing the second set tiebreak, Raonic flat out blew Stepanek off the court in the deciding third set tiebreak, winning it 7 points to 1. Impressive stuff.
With Stepanek down, Robert Kendrick is next. He's ranked outside the Top 100. That match will go ahead tomorrow, either in the morning or at night. No doubt Raonic is hoping for an evening match after playing a couple of tough 3-setters.
